Website design angst - again?
Melody | Sunday, 29 June, 2008 at 8:16 AM Okay, not angst exactly. But still... I turned on my computer this morning and realized I'm tired of the look of my website. Again. It's been a while, of course, but regulars will recognize this declaration. I love, love, love my site for x number of days, weeks, months - even - and then boom. I'm done.
Only I don't have time to be done. Perhaps I've mentioned that I've got my hand in the design of 4 other websites, two of which are completely new, the designs of which have yet to be decided upon. No, there isn't time for this.
Never mind. I'm feeling anxious this morning and think we might expect some changes on the horizon. Just so you know.
For now I think I'll go water those plants and start that laundry and vacuum this floor and pack those things up that have to go elsewhere. Then go see Mr. Pie! Better worry about redesigning a perfectly functional website another day.

The more you have to do, the more likely you are to find something else that simply MUST be done. I know, as I do this myself. THEREFORE, I challenge us to commit to one project and finish it by Thursday. (negotiable--you tell me).
Let me know. :-) I really have too many things going on, and of course other MORE APPEALING things popping up all the time. Hmmmm. Like reading a blog. Replying to same. Uh oh.
Ooh, you're good! Of course I'll commit to finishing one project by Thursday. Better finish MORE than one project by Thursday, based on the week's plan. But which one to commit to publicly? Alas... (Is that what you meant?)
Glad you find my blog more appealing than some of your tasks too. "The dark side?" Nah...
NPR's Talk of the Nation on June 12 was about how to be a productive procrastinator. Only heard bits and pieces but all were fascinating. Hope to hear it all one day.
In my search for the date of that episode, I discovered the Procrastination Research Group. Interesting reading for when you get around to it. :-)
I'm a highly productive procrastinator. Glad to know I've started such a popular trend. I mean, if NPR is covering it... :)
AND a Procrastination Research Group, too?!
